does anyone have trouble with the light bulbs coming loose or burning out quickly?

Yes, we do have a persistent bulb failure problem on this model. There is some sort of corrosion built up in the socket connections.

We had one blub blow out quickly, but found that the wattage was to high. If the unit is not secured to the ceiling correctly it will vibrate and could cause the blubs to come loose.

One of the lightbulbs in mine came lose so I just tightened it and made it really tight, I haven't had trouble with it since.

Sepehr--I thought you were asking if the company has replaced the bulbs. Hahaaaa! No, in the couple of months I have had the lights I have had four bulbs go out. At ten dollars a bulb from Lowe's.

Sorry. I did not have this problem. I just had 2 of 3 sets go out in less than a week. I swapped over to a different brand and have had no issues.

We had the same problem with our new set when the light bulb went on the blink.... flickering continually and it was mind blowing... ugh! But the original company who uses Walmart to sell their aquariums gave us a replacement bulb free without any problem. Thank goodness! I just love my Aquarium! :)

I've had mine for 6-8 months and have had no problems so far. I use it just about every week. I haven't even had to change a light bulb yet. It is just for my personal use and sometimes my daughters.

I have had problems with CFLs and LEDs in this lamp. They burn out quickly. I believe it has to do with the transformer in the power cord.

I've had my lights for over 6 months and have had no problems to date. I would contact customer service to see if they can replace them

i havent had any problems with them. so im assuming that its not normal, if its just one id change it, but it sounds like your saying all are dimming out. May be an alternative issue, but it could very well be possible that its the cheap lights!?

Yes, I experienced this. I purchased dimable LED bulbs that don't burn as hot and it fixed the problem. A little pricey, but worth it if you want to use the light.

I had mine up for about a month before it started to flicker and dim. I put up with it working sometimes and finally went to lowes and bought one that works all the time.

The light I bought went out after about 10 minutes of use, and it hasnt worked since. The halogen bulbs seem to be very fragile, and I am currently seeking other lighting technology that will be more reliable. Sorry - I dont know whether the bulbs can be replaced or not. I am not going to bother trying.

Yes... mine were wobbly as well. Need to handle with care. In fact, to date I've had to return 1 of 2 bulbs because they were broken. Need to look closely at them. For some reason the packaging doesn't hold up well.

I do not have any issues with flickering when I adjust the levels. If were normal bulbs I would say to check for a loose one but in this case you may have a defective lamp. Mark

Sorry. I did not have that issue as everything worked fine. But you should be able to replace the bulb.

I have 3 or 4 of the lights, some under the eve and at least 1 outside of eve and haven't had any problems. If you keep the right bulbs in them, they last pretty good.
